Trip Highlights
Itinerary
A gentle welcome, a shared meal and the slow easing-out of operating mode. The one question is named — who were you before you became who everyone needed? — and left to sit overnight.
Meals · Dinner Stay · Hotel
Morning session at the resort; each woman names what brought her here. Afternoon in the Vietnamese countryside — village, cycling, a home-hosted dinner. Late session: what’s holding you back.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
Strengths and learned behaviours — the emotional core of the retreat. Your VIA results, story-led, in structured pairs. The afternoon and evening for it to land.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
An early start to the Son Tra peninsula — wildlife walking, jungle, Da Nang Bay and the Marble Mountains. No formal workshop; the walking conversations are the work.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
Cham Island in the morning — boat, snorkel, beach lunch. Afternoon workshop: midlife capacity — nutrition, energy, perimenopause and menopause. How your body is also how you lead.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
My Son sanctuary in the morning — Cham ruins, ancient music, pottery, river boat back. Afternoon workshop, led by Susan: verbalising what you want and the boundaries to hold it.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
Morning herbal healing journey — gardens, infusions, meditation, vegetarian lunch on the farm. Afternoon workshop: your elevator pitch — the practical artefact of the entire retreat.
Meals · B · L · D Stay · Hotel
The closing morning: each woman writes herself a letter — what she learnt, what she’ll do differently, the boundaries she’ll hold. We post it to her four weeks later. A closing ritual, lanterns lit, and each woman books her post-retreat call before she leaves.

Additional Information
Who is this retreat for?
Founders running a business with 5–50 staff, or senior leaders inside an organisation — roughly 42–58 — successful by external measures and quietly aware that something needs to shift. A small cohort of women at the same altitude.
How is this different from a wellness retreat or a coaching program?
Wellness retreats give rest; coaching gives tactics; conferences give inspiration. This does recognition work first — naming the strengths that are genuinely yours versus the ones you built to cope — then rebuild and return. The sequencing is the method.
What’s included?
Seven nights at the Almanity Resort and Spa (twin-share or solo), all meals per the program, all in-country transfers and excursions, daily yoga, the eight-day facilitated program, your VIA assessment, a private 1:1 with Susan, pre-retreat onboarding calls, your posted letter, and post-retreat integration and check-in calls.
Can I put it through my business?
The retreat is structured and documented as a professional development program — named competencies, a written agenda, pre/post assessment and a completion certificate — which many participants put through their business as a PD expense. As with anything tax-related, confirm with your accountant; we provide all the documentation you need.
How do I secure a place?
A $1,500 deposit secures your spot, with the balance split 60 and 30 days before departure. Founding-cohort places are limited to 12 and offered first-confirmed. Payment plans available on request.
I can’t get to Vietnam — is there an alternative?
Yes — a domestic version runs in Cairns, Far North Queensland in August 2027: the same recognition work, closer to home, for women whose lives don’t yet allow eight days overseas.
